"YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT?"

Completely and totally taste driven. More? The Artisan bakery provide a "real" alternative to the fast processed quick fix food widely available elsewhere. Ten years ago Patrick had a dream that the kind of food he cooked whilst rattling the pans in his former life as a chef, could be made more accessible for all. Today at More Bakery we produce handmade, artisan treats for some of the Lake District’s finest eateries and everyday foodies who pass through our doors at the Mill Yard Cafe and shop.

The best way to keep up with all that is More? is to join Friends & Family.

Val*

WHEN PATRICK STARTED BAKING, HE DID EVERYTHING BY HAND. AS THE BUSINESS GREW HE KNEW THAT KEEPING THE FINEST BAKING STANDARDS WAS KEY.

*Named after Patrick's late mother.

At the heart of the bakery is our restored 1952 vintage Artofex mixer nicknamed Val after Patrick's mother, who insisted she bought the mixer as an "investment" in the very early stages of the business.

Val replicates exactly the movement of a baker kneading the dough and producing a natural product. Over the last 10 years, new technology and machinery has been introduced to meet production needs as demand has risen, however, Val is still very much part of the family and the lessons we learnt from her still hold true today.

PASSION & PROFESSIONALISM DRIVE OUR PEOPLE

When I was a nipper we grew up in a world with bakers, butchers, fishmongers and greengrocers, who cooked, caught or grew their own products. We knew where the food we ate came from and we trusted the people we shopped with. In today's hectic world some of that shopping ritual has been lost. The team at More Bakery want to lead the revolution and return to a the values of quality, trust and traceability.
